Hawaiian Meatballs

The amazing taste of these Hawaiian meatballs are such a delight. You will love the taste of everything together. The meatballs work up fast and while they cook, you can make the sauce. You will truly enjoy eating them over rice. If you are like me, the sauce is so good you might want to make double! It is really good if you steam some carrots, celery, onions, water chestnuts and green peppers to go with it.

This week I was watching my granddaughter. She is 2 1/2 years old and she kept asking me “why”. Everything I would say she would say “why”. She is adorable and I was telling her we needed to go order a flower because my son is going to prom. We ordered the flower and went home. The next day when I went to get her I told her I needed to get a different colored flower. “Why”? Anyway, I decided to get her a taco and so I said, ” wow look how many dandelions there are in that field over there.” She wasn’t sure what kind of lions grandma was talking about and then I told her that they were the yellow flowers. She said “oh and that my son could pick some for his dance”. And I thought, I wonder who decided that roses are the flower for corsage instead of dandelions? I do know that I have had a few picked for me in my life and that if they aren’t in water they die really fast, and they sure don’t smell as good either. It was fun to watch her as we would go by people’s homes and she would say how about those flowers grandma? They joy of little kids is a great reminder to not sweat the small stuff and stop and look at the flowers.
